Posted April 23, 20196 yr Electronic Arts: Apex Legends Disappointment Signals Substantial Pain Ahead (NASDAQ:EA) SEEKINGALPHA.COM Twitch and Google data show interest in Apex Legends is fading quickly. Popular streamers and influencers are quitting Apex. Apex is wildly overvalued for a fading game. Analyst: ‘Apex Legends’ Declining Popularity Could Hurt EA Stock VARIETY.COM Viewership and Google searches for EA's battle royale title have reportedly dropped since launch. EA Stocks Expected to Dive Due to Apex Legends GAMERANT.COM Because of the declining popularity of Respawn Entertainment's Apex Legends, it appears that publisher EA's stock is expected to take a hit, if not remain stagnant. Well the facts are out. Apex has yet to make any serious money and the game is starting to wane
April 23, 20196 yr Two things here. EA didn't seemingly want this game to launch, let alone against BF V's battle royale. I can't imagine it is getting all the resources it deserves to maintain its growth curve because of it. The other thing is the continued and significant influence of streamers on gaming companies. I realize their coverage plays a role in players going to a game, but I feel like they get treated like an unofficial elected representative of the community as a whole now. They move on or cry about a feature and companies trip on themselves to implement it. Still not sure how I feel about this.
